Original Press Release:
Industry Leader Radisys Rolls Out Long-Life, Small Form Factor Motherboard that Supports the Intel® Core(TM) Duo Processor and Delivers High Performance, Low Power and Advanced A/V
New long-life Endura 945GM Mini-ITXexpress combines a small form factor, support for the Intel® Core(TM) Duo processor, advanced audio-video, excellent price-performance, and more for myriad embedded applications
HILLSBORO, Ore., Aug. 2 // -- RadiSys® Corporation (NASDAQ:RSYS) has expanded its popular Procelerant(TM) Endura product line with the new Endura TP945GM Mini-ITXexpress motherboard. A versatile new solution with an Intel Core Duo processor, the Endura TP945GM Mini-ITXexpress has significant performance enhancements and reduced power consumption compared with the previous generation. The Endura TP945GM features advanced audio-video capabilities through the use of the Mobile Intel® 945GM Express chipset with an integrated 3D graphics engine based on Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 950 architecture and eight channel High Definition Audio. This new motherboard is also just 6.7" x 6.7" (170mm x 170mm) square and RoHS compliant.
The Endura TP945GM has an estimated production lifetime of five to seven years, eliminating the need to qualify new board revisions every year, as is typical of commercial motherboards. Consequently, the cost of ownership is significantly reduced. The Endura TP945GM is designed for extended temperature operation up to 70C, so it is ideal for use in space constrained systems and where there are more demanding thermal requirements. In addition, the Endura TP945GM is designed for increased performance with lower power consumption in order to provide more MIPS per watt. The integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 also delivers exceptional 3D graphics performance. Designers of next-generation systems will use the Endura TP945GM in applications such as medical imaging, entertainment systems, web-based terminals, kiosks, gaming, network appliances, test-and-measurement, industrial automation and more.
"The new Endura TP945GM Mini-ITXexpress is a very versatile small form factor motherboard," said Peter Mitchell, product line manager for the RadiSys Procelerant Endura product line. "As with all RadiSys products, we collaborated closely with our customers in the development of this new board and the result is a great product that will satisfy their requirements for size, power consumption, scalability, flexibility and performance."
"The Intel® Core(TM) Duo processor and Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset delivers the graphics performance and power-efficiency required by today's demanding embedded systems software applications such as graphics- intensive gaming and medical imaging applications," said Rose Schooler, director of marketing, Infrastructure Processor Division, Intel. "This compelling technology is ideal for high performance, small form factor embedded motherboards such as the RadiSys Endura TP945GM."

The Endura TP945GM enables customers to quickly develop next-generation systems with high performance, low power consumption and long life.
o Supports a scalable range of embedded Intel processors including the
Intel Core Duo T2500 2GHz, Intel Core Duo L2400 1.66GHz and
Celeron® M ULV 423 1.06GHz processors. The thermal design power
(TDP) for these processors ranges from 31W for the T2500 down to
just 5.5W for the ULV 423.
o The Mobile Intel 945GM Express chipset has a 667MHz front side bus
and supports up to 4GB of dual channel, DDR2-667 memory for enhanced
performance.
o The integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 has excellent 3D
graphics performance and an x16 PCI Express graphics slot that
enables the use of the latest high performance graphics cards.
o An on-board VGA interface, 18-bit dual channel LVDS interface and
TV-out header for composite, S-video and component video provides a
flexible choice of video outputs. Media Expansion Cards (also
available from RadiSys) can be used in the x16 PCI Express graphics
slot to provide additional DVI and LVDS outputs. Any of the video
outputs can be used with dual independent displays.
o An eight channel CODEC provides support for 7.1 surround sound and
multi-channel High Definition audio for superior playback quality.
An S/PDIF interface also provides a high quality digital audio
output.
o On-board expansion is provided via a mini-PCI slot, an x16 PCI
Express slot (also supports x1 PCI Express cards), an optional
PCMCIA type II socket and an optional CompactFlash socket.
o With eight USB 2.0 ports, four RS-232 serial ports and two PS/2
ports, the TP945GM has a rich set of I/O ports to suit many embedded
applications.
o ACPI 3.0, system monitoring with automatic fan speed control, a
watchdog timer, GPIO port and a TPM 1.2 header provide useful system
management, control and security features.
o The Endura TP945GM is fully RoHS 6 compliant in order to meet the
latest environmental standards.
